Support People with Dementia Course
About Course
This short course is valuable for aged care workers, community health care workers and anyone who needs tools and information when taking care of someone with dementia. Caring for people with dementia is a big responsibility and requires a lot of compassion, patience and understanding of the physical aspects of this condition. Our course provides carers with knowledge to develop an understanding of the anatomy and physiology required to recognise body systems and their components, and to identify alterations associated with the functioning of the human body in the context of health care work.
What you’ll experience
This course is designed by industry experts and learning designers to engage learners effectively with practical information presented through text and images. Learners navigate each lesson with ease and the content is suitable for anyone that wants to learn about dementia, with or without formal qualifications. Our fully online course has 4 sections, including a ‘check for understanding’ section that will help you to develop a deep understanding of this condition and make a positive difference to the lives of people living with dementia. With this value-packed course, learners will progress in order through engaging activities at their own pace with the possibility to review and revisit the module content when needed.
